Back in the day, we got together and read and talked about comic books, mainly the X-Men. Decades later, and not a lot has changed. We started at the very beginning, and are working our way through the X-Men from number one!

The Factor Three train Keeps a'rollin' on anther thrill a minute episode of House of X Book Club! Our first issue is none other than X-Men #38! Today we find out about ANOTHER secondary mutation of the Beasts, as he uses his pinky toe to subdue a hippo! Not really, but the truth is even weirder! We also continue the magical journey of a boy and his pal with diamond plated hands! It's a tale as old as time! or at least as old as the 60's!!!
In our second issue of action packed action, we dive head first into Avengers number 47! Magneto guest stars, and Toad is here too! Magneto does drugs (apparently, but really how else can you explain the manic eyes and grinding teeth?) and Toad irritates everyone! Also, there are some Avengers here! Watch Hercules climb stuff! Marvel at the origins of The Black Knight! Be slightly amused by the bargin basement Avengering of Hawkeye! All this and the Maximoffs too!

In the nameless episode of the House of X Book Club, we read two real barn burning books, X-Men 36 & 37! First in number 36, Mekano gets mad! At Books and Words and other mad making things! He hates the written word almost as much as his father, who very much likes the written word! That dastardly man! And in X-Men 37, the team falls out of a plane! After they rip the door off of course! Like you do on a commercial airplane! And then comes the first of what appears to be MANY, MANY, MANY showdowns with Factor Three! Or maybe just this one that seems to drag on forever! Either way, you know there is going to be a tussle!

Welcome back to another exciting episode of the House of X Book Club! Today we get a double dose of X-Men, with a side of Spider-Man! In X-Men 34, the X-Men travel underground once again to battle Mole Man and Tyrranus! See, what had happened was both of them built giant constructs to tear down their respective cities, but that just wasn't enough! They needed the help of the X-Men to truly defeat one another! It's chapter 42 in the never-ending saga of the X-Men underground!
Then in issue 35, the X-Men remember that they have to fight Factor Three! Banshee fights a spider robot! Spider-Man fights a spider robot! The X-Men fight Spider-Man! Then the X-Men fight a spider robot! Then they all get ice cream and pie! What flavor does Beast like best? We'll never know because that last one was a lie!

In this episode, Rob talks about his love for the Taco Bell dollar menu, his favorite spot to read (hint, it's not the bathroom!), and why the Ronco Pocket Fisherman is the best invention in the history of mankind! Or, maybe they talk about comics, movies, and X-Men! Either way it's shaping up to be the best episode of the House of X Book Club yet!

Welcome back book clubbers! We are so glad you come here to club books and not the Antarctic to do the same to baby seals! Boy do we have a treat for you today. Not ice cream, you only get that after you visit the Professor X basement lair! It's a double shot of Juggernaut. The theory is the reason good ol' Juggs always gets a two-parter is the Crimson Gem of Cyttorak makes his butt too big to fit in a single issue! But don't mention it to him okay, he's a little sensitive about it. Enjoy!

Tonight in the center of the ring, The Quiet Council take on the X-Cellence of X-Cution X-Men 30 and 31! Buckle in, this is going to be a wild one! First we meet the Warlock, and Jean rides a unicorn with no hands! So young and reckless, I bet she kisses with tongues! Next up we face Cobalt Man! This was supposed to be the first in a line of elementally based heroes, but Tungsten Lad never made it off of the drafting table! We hope he is doing well in whatever shenanigans he got up to out there in the superheroing world! Give it a listen, and Alkacelcior!

Today on the pod, the gang talks about X-Men 27 and 28! The Mimic Returns after The X-Men LET HIM GO following another wonderful mind wipe from the evil Professor X! Nothing brings more joy or power retrieval like blunt force trauma to the head! A now concussed Mimic joins the X-Men! Cyclops gets emo! Angel gets emo! Jean gets emo! Nobody wears black eyeliner though, so that is a little disappointing! Ted is here too! The Banshee and The Ogre-Ann! Here on Professor X's Isle!

Sorry, just trying to dodge those pesky copyright laws! We have gathered you all here today to talk about the X-Men. From the very beginning! All our favorite mutants live on an island that is also alive and once tried to kill them. But fences have been mended, and things have been going pretty good for our genetically superior friends. But things have not always been all cocktails and polyamory for Cyclops and his pals. So we go back to the very beginning to see how we got to 2023. And we start 60 years ago! X-Men number one to be exact. Hear what we like, dislike, and what confuses Shane. Which is a lot.
Can't get enough of the X-Team? Come follow us on the social medias:
